Rain lights If you switch on the windscreen wipe in th
e operation rain sensor* for longer than 10
seconds or in the operation permanent wipe (position 2 or 3)
⇒page 63 switching on
for longer than 15 seconds, the side lights
and low beam are switched on automati-
cally. The light switches off if the windscreen wipe is in operation rain sensor* for more than 4 minutes or is not switched
on in the operation permanent wipe.
WARNING
The automatic light control only operat
es as a support. Th
e driver is not
released from his responsibility to inspect the light and if necessary to switch on the light depending on the light conditions. The light sensor cannot detect for example rain or snow. For these conditions we recommend to switch on the low beam
!
Note
•
Do not affix any stickers in front of the light sensor, so that you do not impair its
function or put it out of operation.•
The same principles as for using the automa
tic light control also
apply to the light
which is switched on manually
⇒page 53.
Cornering lights*The cornering lights are used to illuminate
the curves by means of the cone of light
swiveling together with the front headlight with Xenon lights*. This function is active when the speed of the car increases to more than 10km/h. The swiveling function of the headlights ca
n be switched off / on via the menu point
Assistant
in the main menu of the Information display*
⇒page 24.
WARNING
If the cornering ligh
ts are defective, the headlights are automatically lowered to
the emergency position, which prevents a
possible dazzling of oncoming traffic.
Thus the illuminated length of the road is shortened. Drive carefully and have the car inspected immediatel
y by a specialist garage.

mains open, the lights go out
60 seconds after switching off
the ignition. The function Coming Home is controlled with the light sensor in the mount of the inte- rior rear mirror. If the light intensity is higher than the set value of the light sensor, the Coming Home Function is not switched on after switching off the ignition.

WARNING
The storage compartment must always be closed when driving for safety reasons.
Cooling of storage compar
tment on front passenger
side*The compartment is fitted with an
isolatable entry for cooled air.
– You can switch on the cooling system by
pulling the lever in direction of arrow
⇒ fig. 95
.
– Switch off the cooling system by inserting the lever. Opening the air inlet when the air conditioning system is on causes fresh or interior air to flow into the storage compartment. We recommend that you switch off the cooling if it is operating in the heating mode or if you are not using the cooling system for the storage compartment.Storage compartment on the dash panel*

of the storage compartment only for storing
objects which do not project so that the effectiveness of the side airbag is not impaired.Storage compartment below front passenger seat*The storage compartment is foreseen for storing small objects of up to 1.5 kg in weight. – Tilt the lock to open the flap and pull out the flap

– Tilt the lock to close the
flap and press flap close.
Front seat armrest with storage compartment*Fig. 101 Armrest: Storage compartment / cooling of storage compartment
The armrest is adjustable for height and length.Opening storage compartment– Open the lid of the armrest in the direction of arrow
⇒fig. 101
.
Closing storage compartment– Open the lid up to the stop, then you can fold it downwards.Setting height– First of all fold the lid to the bottom and li
ft it in the direction of arrow into one of
the 4 fixed positions.
Adjusting in forward/back direction– Push the lid into the desired position.Opening air inlet– Pull the lock in upward direction
⇒fig. 101
.
Closing air inlet– Push the lock as far as the stop downwards. On vehicles fitted with air conditioning, the storage compartment is equipped with a lockable inlet for thermally treated (warmed-up) air. At open air supply, air flows into the storage with a temperature which is as high as the one out of the air outlet nozzles, depending on temperature setting. The air inlet in the storage compar
tment is connected to position
through adjust-
ment of the control dial for air distribution. This position causes the maximum amount of air to flow into the storage compartmen
t (depending on the rotary regulator posi-
tion for the fan). You can use the storage compartment, for
example, to temper drinks cans, etc.
If you do not use the air inlet in the storage compartment, the end cover should always be kept closed.

.
Control for air distribution– You can adjust the direction of the air
flow using the air distribution control
⇒ page 95.
Rear window heater– Press button . Further information
⇒page 62, “Rear window heater”.
Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating)*– Press the button in order to directly switch on/off the auxiliary heating (auxiliary
heating and ventilation). Further information
⇒page 105, “Auxiliary heating (auxil-
iary heating and ventilation)*”.
The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free of ice, snow or leaves in order to ensure that the heating and ventilation systems operate properly. The heating effect is dependent upon the coolant temperature, thus full heat output only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature. The blower should aways be on to prevent the windows from misting up.
WARNING
You should not leave recirculated air mode on over a longer period of time, as “stale” air may result in fatigue in the driver and occupants, divert your atten- tion and also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident increases. Switch recirculated air mo
de off as soon as the windows begin
misting up.
Note
•
The whole heat output will be needed to unfrost the windscreen and side windows.
No warm air will be fed to the footwell. Th
is can lead to restriction of the heating
comfort.•
The used air streams out through the air removal openings in the luggage
compartment.

The risk of having an accident increases. Switch recirculated air mode off as soon as the windows begin misting up.Climatic* (semi-automatic air conditioning system)Description The Climatic is a combined cooling and heating system. It makes it possible to optimally control the air
temperature at any season of the
year.Description of the Climatic It is important for your safety and for your
driving comfort that the Climatic is operating
properly.
The cooling only operates if button
⇒page 99, fig. 109
is pressed, and the
following conditions are met:•
engine running,
•
outside temperature above approx. +2°C and
•
blower switch switched
on (positions 1 to 4).
If the cooling system is switched on, th
e temperature and air humidity drops in the
vehicle. The wellbeing of the occupants of the car is enhanced as a result of this partic- ularly at high outside temperatures and a high air humidity. The system prevents the windows misting up during the cold season of the year. The heating effect is dependent upon the coolant temperature, thus full heat output only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature. It is possible to briefly activate recirculat
ed air mode in order to enhance the cooling
effect

Air at a temperature of about 5°C may flow
out of the vents under certain circum-
stances when the cooling system is operatin
g. Lengthy and uneven distribution of the
air flow out of the vents and large differences in temperature, for example when getting out of the vehicle, can result in chills in sensitive persons. The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free of ice, snow or leaves in order to ensure that the heating and cooling systems operate properly. After switching on the cooling

from the evaporator of the air condi-
tioning may drip down and form a puddle be
low the vehicle. This is quite normal and
not an indication of a leak!
WARNING
•
For your own safety and that of other road users, ensure that all the
windows are free of ice, snow and misting. Please familiarize yourself about how to correctly operate
the heating and ventilation systems, how to demist
and defrost the windows, as well as with the cooling mode.•
You should not leave recirculated air mode on over a longer period of time,
as “stale” air may result in fatigue in the driver and occupants, divert your attention and also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident increases. Switch recirculated air mo
de off as soon as the windows begin
misting up.
